OKC is gonna eat lovely off those picks. Harden and Westbrook are gonna age like Milk

I can see a Nets and Celtics situation where those later picks are very high

Spurs need to blow it up and rebuild

chasing the 8th seed is making them the western conference Pistons. Bad but not bad enough for a high pick. Worst place you can be

Not trading Kawhi for draft picks/young players has really set the team back for years.

Houston is fukked with no viable assets to get better outside of trading Harden or Westbrook and no option to blow it up and tank with the draft swaps they owe OKC.

If only more contending teams would realize how valuable second round picks can be if you actually get the right players and develop them.

Rockets mentally broken :francis:

Nuggets Bucks Rockets all got some soul searching to do after getting undressed by an LA team

Bucks can at least use the excuse that Giannis was out vs the Suns

I really hope Ja wins ROY--even as a Zion fan--because we'd see two robberies the way the Le-media trying to crown Lebron for two weeks.

I had to turn off Whithorse's podcast after he said How do we account what he's done off the court? and then brought up China :mjlol:

They really already wrote their Kobe's death x Lebron's leadership articles for the summer.

This is why people look at Lebron as a paper champ--despite at worst being Top 5 All-Time

Prolly more physically.
